Welcome back to the Happy Scrappy QAL! For all the QAL details, you can read this blog post here that provides more info on how this QAL is being run, but here’s the quick rundown to remind you:
- The Happy Scrappy QAL will be run right here on my blog, and go for about a month
- It’s a mystery quilt designed to use up some scraps, so get scrap-bin digging and don’t overthink the process
- Every 2-3 days I’ll be posting what blocks to make – either new ones, or some repeats of already-shared block patterns
- Each set of blocks posted is designed to take up to 30 minutes each day over the next 2-3 days
- Join in the QAL community on Instagram using #happyscrappyqal and in the Blossom Heart Quilts Facebook group.
If you’re just tuning in now, here’s the previous posts:

Today we’re making four Ribbon Blocks!
This is it folks, the final set of Ribbon blocks. A reminder – if you are doing your Ribbon blocks with the angles half one way + half the other, keep that balance going with this set. After these, you should have 20 Ribbon blocks.
What you’ll need
Print:
4 – 3 1/2″ x 9 1/2″ rectangles
Background:
8 – 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ squares
See the tutorial for the ribbon quilt blocks here.
Blocks should measure 3 1/2″ x 9 1/2″. Make four blocks.
Share your blocks using #happyscrappyqal on Instagram and in the Blossom Heart Quilts Facebook group! The next blog post will go up on Friday. If you’d like to make sure you don’t miss any posts, sign up for my weekly newsletter and you’ll be reminded each week of what blocks to make. Remember – this is a sew-at-your-own-pace QAL!
